Mindless cooking..

Do you ever cook and just put this, that, and the other?  I do it constantly.. In fact I just did it on this chicken breast I put a little of this and a little of that, and by the time I tried to remember all I could do was eat it up.

That's why I love taking step-by-step photos of everything I make.  I'm all about visual. I love many cook books, but if there's no picture I'm 50% less likely to make it.  I enjoy my blog just like anyone else would.  My blog is where I come to read recipes that I've made instead of jotting them down on a piece of paper that I'll most likely lose.

Winner winner chicken dinner!

I also can't find the post it that had the recipe for these delicious cupcakes I made during the summer..

Lemon Mousse Cupcake

I better start experimenting, cause these recipes were good!

I want the recipes! They look amazing and oh-so yummy!

So much easier to follow this way. Plus, I think visually seeing a beautiful recipe makes me more apt to want to try it.

I should do that. My hubby complains that I change things so often that he never gets the one that he loves to eat.

That looks delicious.

That's exactly why I started blogging my recipes -- so I would have a place to find them when I wanted to make the dishes again1

Penelope said...

Both look so good! Lol, organize your site so we can find the recipes easier!

I love a recipe that has great photos. I am WAY more likely to try a recipe if it has great photos!

Momstart said...

Oh WOW that looks so good!

I love pictures in cookbooks, too. However, looks can be deceiving at times. :)

Pixie Deals said...

I definitely agree the photos are a must. And your photos are awesome!

Laurie said...

I think some of the best recipes come from throwing things together and pictures are a must too.
